DubaiSat-1
These images provide decision makers in the UAE as well as MBRSC clients with a valuable tool for a wide range of applications including infrastructure development, urban planning, and environment monitoring and protection.DubaiSat-1 images are also useful for promoting geosciences and remote sensing research in the region, and for supporting different scientific disciplines in private and academic sectors.[3] The Space Radiation Monitor, the secondary and experimental payload, is capable of measuring the total ionizing dose from the charged particles at the orbits of satellites.The frame includes spacecraft adaptors, six longerons, rails, an inner ring that provides rigidity and stability of the satellite's camera, inner rods and three decks.Dust and sand storms create potentially hazardous air quality for humans, and adversely affect climate on regional and worldwide scales.[13] Satellite images are useful tools to assist disaster relief teams to determine how to tackle rescue and recovery efforts in the wake of catastrophic natural, or even man-made, events.In the aftermath of the tsunami in Japan on March 11, 2011, MBRSC applied DubaiSat-1 to help disaster relief teams determine and manage the scale of the event.
